Bioterrorism and Biological Warfare, by Paul Chrystal, is a fascinating historical look at the use of microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and such, as a weapon, whether by states, organizations, or individuals.

"Sheldon’s forte is an exemplary ability to translate German regimental histories applied to the exact location at a given point on the battlefield."

In this book, the author describes the history of an atrocious side of warfare, the use of chemical agents. He has written a thorough book on the subject, without falling into details. The book is a must for everyone dealing with Weapons of Mass Destruction. Soldiers, politicians and people working in the chemical industry will find this book very informative. It is a balanced book, with a good mix of chemistry, tactical use of the weapons, defensive measures, production of the agents, and the effects on the environment. The only improvement I can recommend is a bibliography for further reading. I can only recommend this book.
